We present the Patrik 3-Wave sail.
APURE WAVE SAIL FOR CHILDREN AND ALL LIGHT RIDERS WHO ARE LOOKING FOR A POWERFUL FUN SAIL.
OVERVIEW
This3-batten sail is the shortcut to fun on the water. Based on our performance wave sails, we have developed a sail that feels light as a feather, generates controlled propulsion with little pressure on the backhand and can be turned and flexed like a real sail. Gone are the days when beginners, women, children and teenagers had to struggle with rickety and heavy sails! Here comes the revolution. Easy planing, lightest handling for water starts and jibes, enough propulsion to use the smallest possible size and a large, wide wind range. Combined with our ultra-light micro mast and micro boom, this sail is the perfect setup for the future generation of windsurfing!

CONSTRUCTION
The3-Micro is a real wave sail for advanced kids and juniors. Our main goals when we developed it were: LIGHTNESS and DURABILITY. To combine these conflicting requirements, we found the following mix to be the best solution. All "colored" panels are made of 2 MIL x/scrim-ply, which is extremely light, but still very resistant to cuts and tears due to the high number of wires. For the clear window we chose a solid and thick 5 MIL monofilm (which - in the worst case - is also easy to find in any sail shop).
We also took all the small details and reinforcements from our 4-Wave and 5-Wave sails to create a real wave-ready sail for smaller and lighter riders.
TRIM
The 4Micro offers an extended trim range on both the luff and the leech.
This sail feels smooth as butter and is light as a feather in the hand. Rig it with a little free leech to gain control. The super-soft batten rotation is maintained even with a more baggy sail. Trim it like a normal wavesail. This is an uncomplicated performance sail for kids, teens, women and light riders. The 3.2 and 3.8 sizes are equipped with a higher boom and clew, while the smaller sizes are fully adapted to the proportions of children to guarantee maximum fun on the water.
"I love this sail because it's super light. I can handle it with ease even in strong winds. It feels stable and fast. I ask my dad to pull the downhaul for me as it works best for me with more loose leech. With this sail I start planing quickly and windsurfing is even more fun now."
